chair and a half apartment therapy
Kelly Swallow, starting at £800 Last week we talked about charming home libraries (and the bibliophiles that love them), but it got us (and you) thinking… what good is a wall full of books if there's not a comfortable seat to let you enjoy them? We rounded up ten inviting chairs that are begging for a well-lit corner, a well-worn book, and a warm cup of tea. 1. Kelly Swallow makes incredibly unique patchwork chairs using vintage and designer fabrics as well as grain sack and linens. Kelly Swallow, starting at £800. 2. This chair-and-a-half is a great place to curl up with a book — and if you're a pillow person, you've got lots of room! Crate and Barrel, $799. 3. If leather is more your style, this generous armchair is one you can sink into and stay awhile. 4. A tufted seat back lends a bit of sophistication to this otherwise simple reading chair. West Elm, from $499. 5. A small footprint, beachy rattan, and an attached table and storage system make this little armchair a powerful solution to the all-in-one reading nook.

It's been awhile since we checked out "chair and a half" options so I thought I'd see what was out there, especially something that might find a home in the living room down the line. Both Room & Board and Crate & Barrel have numerous "chair and a half options" (above are the most comfy looking ones) and I'd like to think this isn't due to Americans' expanding waistlines. Do you have a "chair and a half" to recommend?
• Nursery Seating for Multiples • A Bed in the NurseryAlthough we looked at the Best Sleeper Sofas of 2016 a couple weeks ago, there are small spaces where even a sofa bed won't fit. In those instances, sleeper chairs and ottomans may work in a pinch. While they may not be comfortable enough to sleep on every night, convertible chairs and ottomans expand for quick and easy small space guest rooms. Ottoman Bed Plus Mattress Topper This is the most budget-friendly option on our list but it doesn't mean it's subpar; it has an average 4-star rating from over 100 reviewers. Some customer noted the firmness of the foam mattress topper, though not all necessarily noted it was a bad thing. Cortesi Home Savion Convertible Chair We love a double and triple threat in terms of furniture. This convertible chair is great because you can use it as a chair, chaise or flat bed.

Ottoman with Zen Grey Slipcover By day it's a simple unassuming ottoman, perfect for propping up your feet and watching TV. By night, it unfolds to create a bed, a welcoming respite for a last minute guest. Although described as a sofa, this sleeper measures only 47" wide—just small enough to be considered a chair.

A gel-infused memory foam mattress ensures your unexpected guests will be comfortable come bedtime. Dream On Sleeper Chair Reviewers love this sleeper chair (which is made in America!). From one of the comments: "It is always hard to purchase things online without being able to sit on things, feel it, see the color, etc.
This oversized chair worked out perfectly! It looks beautiful and the bed is extremely comfortable for a pull out! I would highly recommend this sleeper chair! It feels great and the color was exactly what I was expecting!" Sofa, So Good Twin Sleeper A kiln-dried wood frame ensures you'll have a long-lasting piece of furniture, and the standard twin means you can use easy-to-find sheets and bedding.
